This Squier James Johnston Jazz Bass delivers a lower-cost yet well-built signature bass designed after the Biffy Clyro bassist's own Fender Jazz Bass. The basswood body has a classic Lake Placid Blue gloss finish, and is loaded with two Custom Jazz Bass single coil pickups with Alnico V magnets. Versatile with power and a nice range of clear to crunch. It's regular 34" scale with a nice fast neck - 1.5" nutwidth, C shape neck with a 9.5" radius and Rosewood fretboard. This also has the great HiMass bridge with brass saddles which helps for reliable tuning and increased sustain. You've also got the Biffy Clyro logo on the front of the matching headstock and Johston's signature on the back of it. Very similar build to the great Classic Vibe series with the signature additions.
